CPeO - A Comprehensive Package for Building eLearning Organizations

CPeO or The Comprehensive Package for Building eLearning Organizations was originally designed and built for institutions wishing to instigate networked education systems or distance learning. Now a complete tailor made eLearning suite for educational organizations and educators anywhere, CPeO has evolved to offer advantages found in no other programs.

Having worked in the international IT and eLearning fields for many years it became obvious to the Ipembo Campus team that capacity building programs being planned or built are far from meeting the complex and unique challenges facing developing institutions and cultures worldwide today.

The Four Vectors of Success

To remedy this, the Ipembo Campus team developed an innovative Bottom to Top, Base to Summit or South to North or Down Up strategy to build sustainable eLearning organizations quickly with minimized risks. This structure is based on four integrated vectors:

When developing eEducation systems difficulties are daunting. Focused, these vectors form a strong but flexible platform from which people and institutions can leapfrog current obstacles towards realistic and effective human resources development.

The CPeO has been developed and implemented in African and Asian "Public Private Partnership" projects of GTZ, the German development agency for technical cooperation, as well as with educational institutions in Europe, and with HRD departments of international corporations. Through these successful projects with hundreds of educational experts and dozens of educational institutions CPeO is poised to become the bench mark in eLearning training programs, in such diverse areas as Zambia, Germany, India and Uganda with a future implementation in South East Asia and South America. As the core element of full capacity building programs, CPeO is built for developing educational services across the entire learning spectrum.
